Towie’s Gemma Collins enjoys evening with Celebs Go Dating ex Laurence Hearn after split from James ‘Arg’ Argent
GEMMA Collins enjoyed an evening with her Celebs Go Dating ex Laurence Hearn following her split from James "Arg" Argent.
The Towie star socialised with Laurence and several pals just days after her latest break up from the reality star.
Gemma captioned an Instagram snap of the occasion: "Lovely summer eve with the girls and my lovely Laurence."
Laurence also shared a social media tribute to Gemma with an Instagram which read: "My adorable girl noone knows the real you soft kind wonderful and the light in my life your so special to me @gemmacollins1 I’m so proud to have you in my life x"
The couple had dated on the reality show earlier this year but things fizzled out between them.
She also recently caught up with her jailbird ex Stephen Mortimer on a night out in Essex.
The couple, who have been on and off for the past seven years and call themselves the Burton and Taylor of Chigwell, split up during a mini break in Spain at Arg’s rented villa.
A source close to Arg said: “It is over. Gemma dumped him after growing sick of his going out and then just disappearing, not telling her where he was.
“He was regularly going AWOL and quite simply Gemma had enough.
"She’s got loads of exciting work things coming up and basically doesn’t have time to deal with his s**t.”
Their split comes only weeks after Arg told Gemma on the new series of the hit ITVBe show that he was “ready to commit” to her, and they have also chatted about having children.

But the couple have also been seen rowing — with Gemma getting the locks changed to keep Arg out.
However, there will not be any Bridget Jones-style moping around for Gemma as she focuses on her latest work projects.
She recently made a surprise appearance in a trailer for Netflix’s hit show Orange Is The New Black and will be donning her pinny in the next series of Celebrity MasterChef.
Gemma is also currently shooting her own reality show.
